No doubt that Nova is smart with many features. Which only makes it even more odd that they (still) do not offer a more advanced solution for Landscape/Portrait. As for quite a number of years aspect ratios in the ball park of 2:1 has been very common on slabs. One offer could be individual settings, another could be to to offer the 2x1 vs 1x2 mode that our stock launcher offers. (The flip-side of the later being that widgets obviously can not generally cross the border between the two 'halves')

Have Nova Launcher finally found a better way of handling landscape than compress and stretch of portrait (like most other launchers also do)

Does it work for your set-up?

This is the info I see on it. (ignore the old stamp, other system stuff reports the same)

If I remember correctly I tried to use it on Lineage without any luck... (it is a variant of the AOSP com.android.launcher3 available here) ADD: Just (re)tried. The APK does not load on neither LineageOS 19.1 nor AICP R

Then I would say that it is highly unlikely that you would be the first to get a mail, so I think the "oem" here is the key for "China"

Ah! Good point. Sounds plausible.

Indeed this looks self contradicting. I do not know why. My personal GUESS is that they in April just got a confirmation that it passed and they would be getting the official approval, but did not get the actual paperworks... But I could be wrong. And do seem odd that this should take more than a month to be delivered.

Mindthegapps on 19.1 has a /system/addon.d/30-gapps.sh of 2.2Kb size that looks quite different from the similar 70-gapps.sh I see on AICP with OpenGapps (10.8K) Here collage of the interesting parts (in above order)

I can see that I chose my perk with the Scandinavian layout. Will be interesting to see if this affects the delivery time? I would not be surprised if plain US-QWERTY was served first.

Just tried to redo the lineage-19.1-20220606-nightly-pro1-signed.zip using adb sideload and NikGapps-core-arm64-12-20220421-signed.zip To get rid of some of all the junk from the MindTheGapps package - (OpenGapps still does not support 12(.1) at all) It got 'stuck', never going past the initial animated logo. New reboots and patience did not help. Note that I did NOT do a factory reset at first attempt. It did load enough to support adb though so did a adb reboot bootloader Selected "Recovery mode" and there "Factory reset" and reboot. It worked in principle. (But still with s

PS Just noticed that the https://opengapps.org/ has pulled the 20220503 for Arm and Arm64, reverting to previous 20220215, so I guess they have some serious issues (that I have not encountered). Their page does not have a text on this, and the 0503 is still available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm64/

Smoothly installed aicp_pro1_r-16.1-WEEKLY-20220608.zip on May 5 security patch and open_gapps-arm64-11.0-pico-20220503.zip using adb sideload Known keyboard bug still there (see lineage thread) Note that the signature when downloaded as a zip is not accepted, so the loader on the phone asks you "...install anyway?".

Note that they have now purged the oldest of the four releases with 18.1, so expect them all to be gone within weeks. So IF you are interested in 18.1, then make sure to pull a copy ASAP.... (They did the same with 17 after 18 was released)

(Merged your thread into this one,)

Guessing here, I would expect the order to roughly be: Pending Pro1, and then Pro1X roughly in chronological order. I doubt they will prioritise IGG perks over pre-orders or vice versa. But that said they might bundle them somehow e.g by nation as I guess one bundle of n units could get faster and cheaper customs and shipping than n individual parcels. But again, I'm only guessing. And we have no idea neither how fast the production rate is nor the size of the queue, so how long it will take before all orders are sent is anyone's guess.

Indeed they are small. But also remember the global issues like the Covid and the ship shortage that has affected huge players also. Even huge companies like Apple and VolksWagen struggle to get the parts they need.... And add to that, that FxTec was swindled shortly after the Pro1X campaign start, so they had to totally redesign for another chipset. So the whole thing is a crazy story indeed.

Seven days ago they wrote: So why do you find it crazy that they have not updated after one week ? ADD: Guessing here, I assume that they await some signing key with the official approval, as this would prevent them from flashing signed images before they get the key. Could also be a pure legal thing that they got the key, but are not allowed to flash using it before they get the paperworks on it.

PS. Remember that there are two principal different ways a full cover for a slap can be made. Top grips over bottom half Bottom grips over top part Only the second type can be used to protect a Pro1 top (No use of the bottom part)

Indeed, would be interesting to hear of experiences with Pixel 5a cases. Remember that protecting the top 'half' also, is more complex than just the bottom, with a few main issues: Can the two 'halves' still close reasonably, for a top protector with a good grip? Will it impair access to the top row of keys? How much will it reduce touch of the outer parts of the display? - where this for some would be a plus! I have experimented with this as reported earlier in the thread, but the results were far from stellar - though usable.
